That's magic that you can do that. I'm 48 and have been feeling it in my hips along with sciatica nerve coming from my hips from swinging the bat.Feeling it in the shoulder to lol
There’s no question in my mind that Teacherman is right about the mechanics of most of the great hitters…I’ve tried it…it works…if in doubt look at Jeff Bagwell…hall of fame with an unconventional setup and swing but did everything teacherman is explaining…the real challenge is the game itself hitting a moving ball that changes speed and direction..I feel that requires more than just great mechanics
@@djs2920 That's funny you said Jeff Bagwell. I've been thinking lately that if you took Schenck's method to it's extreme, you get a jeff bagwell. As I looked again at Bagwell's swing I see that it's only partially true. If you find the very best pound for pound hitters, you actually DO start to see patterns. The problem with so many of today's gurus, Schenck included, is they bought into the popular swing mechanics of the steroid era (Ever notice almost all his models are steroid users?). But those guys aren't among the top pound for pound hitters of all time. By making the P4P distinction, you change the entire course of action you take in understanding the swing. Schenck's model is not built on a solid foundation because it's based on the wrong guys. If this worked for you I think that's great. I can see how it would help some guys.
@@theswingmechanic I think steroids sped up his time to contact which allowed him more time to lay off balls but I think Bond's mechanics were there in Pittsburgh before the roids.
Hello there Coach
I'm trying to teach this tactic to my son who is 15
God willing it does something good for him as a hitter

Maybe some hitters get in slumps because they face 1 or a series of great pitchers who just totally mess with their timing ??
A swing has to be repeatable, building consistency. Your swing is that and limits the necessity of perfect timing with the 80% load.
Can you put out some slow motion videos?
Yes please let me no to lol. So over tightness in the upper body got it
You’re still searching because you haven’t found the key. It’s not working consistently because it’s not what separates the greats.

@@patricktehan3590 i agree with both things. His mechanics never changed, and yet he doubled his home run production. What does that tell you.
